Question

When attempting to sync settings in the develop module, the crop, straighten and aspect ratio selections are grayed out. When I click on synchronize, the crop is applied but. If you don't want to synch the crop, there doesn't appear to be anyway to deselect that option.

This was an undocumented design change in LR 15.0. When Upright Transforms is checked, then Crop is automatically checked and greyed out:

I have no idea what motivated this change.

So if you don’t want Crop copied, then uncheck Upright Transforms also.

If want to copy Upright Transforms but not Crop, see here for several workarounds.
